Jensen Ackles Latest News, Photos, and Videos

This is super cool news – Daneel Ackles has joined the cast of the 13th season of Supernatural, alongside her husband Jensen Ackles!

The actress is set to play the recurring character Sister Jo, who is described as “a well-known faith healer whose good works attract the attention of someone very, very bad: Lucifer (Mark Pellegrino),” according to Variety.

Daneel will make her first appearance on the show in episode 13.

Some of Daneel‘s past projects include her roles on One Tree Hill and in the Harold & Kumar franchise.

The long-running CW show’s co-showrunner Robert Singer spoke about how they keep the show fresh.

“The big thing with us is: How do we keep it fresh?” Robert told the mag. “We just felt there’s so much opportunity with Jack. It’s a big swing again, but somehow we always manage to keep the show grounded in its own reality….At the end of the day, the show is really about these two guys and how great they are together. They’re the lifeblood of the show.”

The guys, along with their Supernatural co-star Misha Collins, tested out the new Nintendo Switch and played games such as Super Mario Odyssey, Pokkén Tournament DX, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, 1-2-Switch, and ARMS.

Jared also took some time to visit the San Diego Zoo that day!

“Had SUCH a great time at the @sandiegozoo !! I don’t even mind that the two-toed sloth stole my camera! ;),” he captioned the below photo on Instagram.

The Supernatural co-stars were spotted out and about on Tuesday (May 23) in the Tribeca neighborhood of New York City.

Besides starring on the same show, Jared and Jensen have a lot more in common – they’re both new dads!

While Jared and his wife Genevieve welcomed their third baby in March, Jensen and his wife Danneel welcomed twins late last year!

“It’s wonderful that I forget that I’m on a TV show when I’m with my family. Learning lines or this or that becomes unimportant. It’s about going, ‘Are Gen and Odette okay? Is Tom okay? Is Shep okay?’” Jared recently told People.
